Why aren't Truck Campers popular in W. Pa.?
I don't get it. With all the hunters, fisherman and unlimited destinations, why aren't TC's very popular in Western Pa.? Heck you can't even find a dealer with a decent inventory within 5 hours....

I would like to change the topic but I'm keeping it on this same thread so anyone reading will know a little of my recent history.
I've done all or most of the upgrades I mentioned earlier to my new Adventurer TC. It didn't come with much of a manual. So I have some lingering questions I hope this community can help me with.
My questions:
-When the camper is being stored, should I leave the 30v hooked up and turned on to the 110 wall plug? Should I leave the master power shutoff on? Is this charging the batteries (I put 2 ganged new ones in)? The Jensen audio unit is lit up but still turned off.
-When the camper is hooked up on the truck, are the batteries charging going down the road or when the truck is running?
-The hot water heater seems to run fine. It has no thermostat. The manual covers many models and mentions that it will max out at 180*. That seems high to me as I know the polystyrene insulation enveloping it can melt at 160*. Should I be watching this? I haven't let it max out yet.
-I'm pretty sure the hot water, furnace, and fridge should be turned off while traveling. What keeps your food from spoiling on a long trip?
I have more but let's start with these. There is a lot of expertise on here so I appreciate any help.
